To help Qingyan Village sell its tea at a high price, Lin Shen burned his hands until they blistered while roasting tea in an iron wok and even paid the cold-chain packaging fees upfront. Yet he was falsely accused of pocketing three million yuan in kickbacks. Furious villagers stormed his home, beat his parents, seized his mother's gold bracelet to settle the alleged debt, and forced him to cover the price difference. Disheartened, Lin Shen moved to Qingchuan Village. With the villagers' trust and support, he used an ancient method to turn discarded tea leaves into premium Iceheart Purple Bud tea, won the national Tea King gold award, and led Qingchuan Village to prosperity. Meanwhile, after driving away their benefactor, the people of Qingyan Village were first swindled out of their savings by a fake businessman. They then faced enormous compensation claims and prison sentences for producing and selling poisonous chemical tea. Their tea became worthless stock, and the entire village was permanently blacklisted by the industry.
